World's End is Near...Unless You're in Southwest France
by Elaine Cobbe
The end of the world is near -- that is according to some interpretations of Mayan predictions. While those predictions say it all ends December 21 at 11:11 UTC, some say the tiny village of Bugarach, in southwestern France, will be saved.
Bugarach - population 180 - seems perfectly ordinary at first sight - except for the mountain, rising suddenly above it, as if out of nowhere. It is this mountain, the Pic de Bugarach, that seems at the heart of most of the rumors surrounding the place and the reason why people here believe the village is safe from harm.
For a start, it is upside down, created when the Earth's plates pushed against each other millions of years ago, flipping the older rock on top. And, it stands alone, so when you climb to the top, you can see for kilometers in every direction.
Many people believe it has mystical properties and some say it is home to aliens, ready to abandon Earth ahead of the predicted apocalypse.
Not everyone is convinced. But locals say there is something there.
And, people have been flocking to the area for decades - although most say they chose to stay for the region's natural beauty, rather than its esoteric reputation.
Englishwoman Valerie Austin has lived in Bugarach for 24 years and has never seen so much as a light in the sky. But that has not stopped people coming in search of strange phenomena.
"As long as I've been here, people talked about strange things. People come here expecting strange things," Austin explains.
The mayor of the village, Jean-Pierre Delord, says the mountain has always been a little bit mystical, and attracts a wide variety of people.
"There are people who believe in aliens, in people living inside the Earth, in UFOs, " Delord notes. "And there are those who believe the mountain has magical healing properties - because of its magnetic force."
Irishwoman Jennifer Harpur lives in the region and loves to go walking on the mountain. She does not believe the rumors of aliens - but she, too, has felt something there.
"There is a strange kind of feeling because as you turn around, the wind either makes lots and lots of noise in your ear, but you turn around slightly to the left or slightly to the right and it's very, very silent," she says. "So it's a kind of eerie feeling."
Patrice Etienne, who runs a small local café and does a brisk trade in tee-shirts and postcards of the mountain with superimposed orbs, has no doubt there are strange occurances up there.
"We can see flying objects. It's moving so fast you cannot see it with your eyes, without a camera," Etienne says, " [have you seen…] yes….. During the night, there's a lot of strange lights, like falling stars, going down and up again. It's really strange."
And, it is those reports that have attracted New Agers and healers and the simply curious for years.
With the latest rumors that Bugarach will be saved, the mayor has called in the army and banned access to the mountain Friday through Sunday, concerned the tiny village will be overrun by thousands of outsiders.
"The police do not know if there will be no one or throngs of people," Mayor Delord says. "So we had to put some security in place."
Some local residents, like Valerie Austin, believe the mayor should have kept quiet and blame him for stirring up all this interest in Bugarach.
And, Austin says it has not brought anything to the town - in fact, quite the opposite… tourists who would normally seek out the tranquility of the area have been frightened off by rumors of hordes of New Agers descending on the place all year long.
"The people who normally come to stay…… just haven't come," she says.
Sarah McMeekan, who moved to the area years ago, says she too believes there's a special energy about Bugarach - but she laughs at the rumors that the end is nigh for anyone not actually in the village…
"I shall be drinking a nice glass of wine with friends," McMeekan quips. "We're having a we-have-survived party on the 22nd."
Like many others, she believes if the Mayans were that good at predictions, why didn't they see their own end coming?

Once you've obtained a Labor Board Judgment against your employer for unpaid wages, you'll be faced with the more difficult problem: collecting!
There are a number of reasons why collecting a Labor Board Judgment is difficult. The first is that a Labor Board "Judgment" is not really a "judgment" at all. Therefore, it cannot be collected through levies and seizures the way a court judgment can.
When you win at the Labor Board, you get an "ODA" – "Order, Decision, or Award" – for wages owed. But it's not a judgment….not yet. The ODA first needs to be certified as a judgment by the Superior Court. Then, it can be enforced like any other court judgment.
If your employer is the sort that cheats employees out of their wages, it may not pay your ODA voluntarily. If that happens, it's time to turn up the heat; and, that is where we come in.
We know how to collect wage awards. We'll collect your ODA for you, and we'll get paid only when we succeed. So, it won't cost you a dime up-front.
If you've won a Labor Board wage order, and your employer needs a little pressure before you'll get paid, call us at 877.551.0210. Both the call and the consultation are free.
We'll discuss your options and our strategy. Call now!

Seven Devils Chalet Rental Photos and Description
4 Bedroom Chalet With Mountain Views, Hot Tub, Fire Pit, Rec Room, And Much More
Centrally located to all that the High Country mountains of NC have to offer, this wonderful and magical cabin is the essence of mountain vacation living. From the entry-way bear carved into the log beam, the glorious view, hemlock deck railing, fire pit, hot tub, stone fireplace, along with many other features, Knob Hill Chalet provides all the comforts of home with the charm of a cabin get-away.
This cabin has it all with 2 fireplaces; one gas and one wood burning, stunning view, pool table, hot tub, 4 bedrooms and 3 baths that easily sleeps 10, full-service kitchen with counter and dining for 8, beautifully landscaped, and less than a mile to Hawksnest Zip Line and Snow Tubing.
Walk into the Knob Hill Chalet and enter a warm and charming mountain cabin complete with a recreation room, small bar, lounging area with gas fireplace, hemlock furniture and moose, bears, and deer, and rustic accessories in abundance. This lower level also has a full bath, laundry room, antique mantels, beautiful high wood ceilings and wall pieces that will make you walk around this house just examining all the wonderful treasures to be found. It is the perfect place to entertain with the pool table, Foosball, gas log fireplace, 42' flat screen TV, and video games.
Completing the lower level is a bathroom and a bedroom. The bedroom will delight children as there is the bunkroom that sleeps 4 with a western and mountain motif complete with guitars and cowboy hats, and antique knickknacks that complete the theme.
As you walk up the steps the philosophy of this house is obvious as each hardwood step is hand painted with messages such as Dream, Hike, Have Fun, Enjoy, Relax.... Enter into a delightful great room with an open kitchen, dining room and living room combined which in itself is enchanting but must come after you have examined the stunning view of Grandfather Mountain Profile seen from every window. If you walk onto the deck it is even larger than life. Imagine having dinner on the hemlock stick deck and leaving behind any cares and worries among the nature and beauty.
The master bedroom on the main level of the home has a king size bed. On the upper level of the home there are two bedrooms each with a queen size bed and there is one bathroom upstairs for the rooms to share.
Knob Hill Chalet is centrally located in the High Country in Seven Devils. From the home you are 2 miles from Hawksnest Snow Tubing and Ziplines, 12 miles to Boone, 12 miles to Blowing Rock, 7 miles to Ski Sugar, 14 miles to Ski Beech, 12 miles to Grandfather Mountain and the Blue Ridge Parkway, and 9 miles to Valle Crucis.
Depending on the weather, we always recommend four wheel drive or to have chains available during the winter months. This home has paved access and the driveway will hold 3 vehicles well and 4 tightly.
- Suitability:
- Long-term Renters Welcome
- children welcome
- non smoking only
- pets not allowed

Fifty years ago, the Great Society was launched, the Ford Mustang went on sale, the Beatles invaded America, and "The Man From U.N.C.L.E.," quite arguably the most intriguing and original adventure series ever produced for television, debuted on NBC. In September, 100 U.N.C.L.E. fans gathered in Culver City, Calif., home of the once-glorious Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer studio where the show was filmed, to celebrate five decades of fascination with U.N.C.L.E. The event was strictly limited to 100 attendees and sold out quickly, an indication of the show's lasting legacy.
The two-day event, dubbed "The Golden Anniversary Affair," started organizing only last May. Two lifelong U.N.C.L.E. fans — Robert Short, an Oscar-winning special effects artist who was introduced to the show even before it went on the air when his sister got a job as a photo and stunt double on the series; and Jon Heitland, »

The mouths of gamers and Alien fans everywhere were left sour after the rather lacklustre Aliens: Colonial Marines so when a new game was announced with Sega yet again behind the curtain, some folks started to panic yet another disaster was around the corner.
Sega, with developer Creative Assembly, sought to go back to the original 1979 film and recreate that sense of horror and dread in an original storyline that would take place 15 years after the events of that film and follow Amanda Ripley, Ellen's daughter, as she too comes into contact with the dreaded creature.
The end result for Alien: Isolation is probably one of the finest survival horror experiences in gaming I've had in years, as it's relentlessly tense, rarely gives you a moment of peace and is often challenging.

On September 19th, 20th Century Fox will unveil the highly anticipated The Maze Runner and according to early numbers, director Wes Ball's movie is on track for a $30 million opening when it bows next weekend.
Based upon the best-selling novel by James Dashner, when Thomas wakes up trapped in a massive maze with a group of other boys, he has no memory of the outside world other than strange dreams about a mysterious organization known as W.C.K.D. Only by piecing together fragments of his past with clues he discovers in the maze can Thomas hope to uncover his true purpose and a way to escape.
One of the most popular soundtracks Sony Music has released this year, the original movie score is from American film composer and conductor John Paesano.
Originally from Detroit, Michigan, Paesano initially studied classical music with composition professor Sally Dow Miller of Conservatoire de Paris. »

Scream Factory recently gifted us genre fans a double dose of creature feature terrors with their Blu-ray releases of the killer rat flick Deadly Eyes and George P. Cosmatos' hugely underrated deep sea horror film Leviathan. While both films aren't necessarily well-known amongst more casual fans, it's great to see Scream put such great effort into their presentations for each of these cult classics.
For those who haven't seen it before, Deadly Eyes (or Rats)is a rather ridiculous (but wonderfully so) early '80s nature-run-amok story that plays up the concerns and dangers of modern urban society by way of roided-out killer rat infestations that have a penchant for human flesh. The film takes its premise very seriously, but it's the use of Daschunds in rat costumes that has given Deadly Eyes something of an unintentional comedic spin, making for a rather uneven horror film.

Stars: Tom Hanks, Bruce Dern, Carrie Fisher, Corey Feldman, Henry Gibson, Rick Ducommun, Wendy Schaal, Brother Theodore, Courtney Gains, Gale Gordon, Dick Miller, Robert Picardo, Cory Danziger | Written by Dana Olsen | Directed by Joe Dante
Written by Dana Olsen (Going Berserk) and directed by Joe Dante (Gremlins, The Howling), The 'Burbs is a comedy-horror hybrid that, for me, was a staple film of my childhood, a movie I was probably too young to be watching, yet couldn't get enough of. I was very excited to hear that Arrow, a company I am a fan of, were bringing out The 'Burbs on Blu-ray, for the first time in the UK, with a director's cut, and a smorgasbord of extras.
A stellar cast, featuring heavyweight acting talent like Tom Hanks, Bruce Dern, Carrie Fisher, Corey Feldman and Henry Gibson, this is a beautifully dark, hilarious and addictive film that deals with themes like cannibalism, »

Kenneth Lampl and Darren Tate are the composers of Magnolia Picture's "Frontera". What makes them so unique? They've never met in person. Join us as we talk with them about their interesting and unique working relationship.
Working partnerships are common in the movie-making industry. Pooling together knowledge and talent is one way to create a more appealing and more complete product. Furthermore, for large projects with lots of work to do and tasks to complete, it makes the burden easier to bear (we all know how helpful it can be to have a shoulder to lean on). What is not common is having such partnerships develop across an ocean and not in person. For Kenneth Lampl and Darren Tate, that's exactly what happened.
Kenneth Lampl is a Professor of music at Hofstra University in New York. Darren Tate is an international DJ and producer who resides in London. Together, »

Poznan, Poland—John Ottman is a traditionalist. The composer for such films as "XMen— Days of Future Past," "Superman Returns," "The Usual Suspects," "X2: XMen United," and "Apt Pupil," writes scores in the style of his musical heroes, John Williams and Jerry Goldsmith. Here at the Transatlantyk Festival in Poznan, he talked to attendees about the emotional points film music should hit and lamented the lack of finesse in so many of today's scores. Ottman is unique among composers in that he serves not only as the scorer for Bryan Singer's films, he also edits them, which severely limits the amount of time he has to score. He recently emerged out of a three-year work jag that included working on "Jack the Giant Slayer," "X-Men—Days of Future Past." My colleague Kris Tapley interviewed Ottman about "Days of Future Past," in May so I decided to do »

Following the break-up of Emerson, Lake and Palmer at the end of the 1970s, Keith Emerson ventured into the world of film soundtrack composition with his score for Italian director Dario Aregento's horror film Inferno in 1980. This, in turn, led to Emerson being commissioned to compose and perform the music for the Sylvester Stallone film Nighthawks in 1981. From here a succession of film scores were to follow for directors in Italy, Japan and the United States. At the Movies gathers together Emerson's music for seven movies including Nighthawks, Best Revenge, Inferno, La Chiesa (The Church), "Muderock, Harmagedon and Godzilla Final Wars.
Disc One (Us Movies) contains 2 full soundtracks. Firstly, there is Nighthawks (1981) an enjoyable cop thriller from Sylvester Stallone. The movie co-starred Billy Dee Williams as Stallone's partner, Lindsey Wagner (of TVs Bionic Woman fame) as the love interest and Rutger Hauer as terrorist Heymar Reinhardt. »

They were answering a distress call, but it wouldn't be long before the crew of the Nostromo would need to send out one of their own. This year marks the 35th anniversary of Ridley Scott's Alien, and to celebrate the film's legacy, 20th Century Fox has unveiled eye-grabbing cover art for their Alien: 35th Anniversary Limited Edition Blu-ray release that depicts the Xenomorph and Ridley melding together.
Set for an October 7th release, the Alien: 35th Anniversary Limited Edition Blu-ray features the theatrical cut and the director's cut, as well as a digital copy and some meticulously detailed cover art that makes it difficult to tell where a spacesuit-clad Ridley begins and where the Alien ends. This intertwined artwork fittingly depicts Ripley's relationship with the Aliens, as she continually faces off against their ruthless species in four films. The 35th anniversary edition has »

Directed by Dean Parisot
"Never give up. Never surrender." Truer words have never been spoken. In 1999, the science fiction genre was shaken up a bit by a movie so smart and so funny that no other film has managed to duplicate its greatness ever since. That film is Galaxy Quest, a hilarious satire of all things sci-fi, most specifically the Star Trek franchise. Galaxy Quest isn't simply a parody of Star Trek, though. It's a parody of a show within a movie that bears an extraordinary resemblance to Star Trek, and this goofy send-up is the perfect recipe for intelligent humor, dazzling special effects, and pure movie magic.
The film follows a group of semi-washed up actors who starred in Galaxy Quest, a Trek-esque TV show from the early 1980s.Led by Jason Nesmith (Tim Allen), this band »

While the average audience member might not automatically process this, the overall sound of a film is pivotal to our enjoyment. When it comes to composers, it's almost as if they're engineering their own films away from the filmmakers, with elevated action, moody drama and swooning romance. What's unique is hearing the music of the film, then heading home and hearing it on your own. The mark of a great composition is that it complements the movie perfectly, but on an independent listen, it creates new images all its own inside your head. This week, we listen to Michael Giachinno's score for Dawn Of The Planet Of The Apes, currently the number one movie in America. The Apes movies have a long legacy of significant scores from the likes of Jerry Goldsmith and Patrick Doyle, the latter who composed Rise Of The Planet Of The Apes. But, more importantly, this »

Dawn of the Planet of the Apes, 2014
Directed by Matt Reeves
Starring Andy Serkis, Jason Clarke, Gary Oldman, Keri Russell, Toby Kebbell, Kodi Smit-McPhee, Nick Thurston, Terry Notary and Karin Konoval
In the wake of a disaster that changed the world, the growing and genetically evolving apes find themselves at a critical point with the human race.
The announcement of a reboot to the Planet of the Apes franchise was met with apathy due to the poor reception and utter failure of a movie that is Tim Burton's 2001 remake, but 2011's Rise of the Planet of the Apes was a nice surprise. The movie was beautiful, slow and brilliantly written and acted with some of the most impressive visuals ever seen. Not only was it one of the best movies released that year, it was easily the best movie in the Planet of the Apes franchise. Its sequel »

Even before you consider Rupert Wyatt's hit 2011 blockbuster Rise of the Planet of the Apes and its successor Dawn of the Planet of the Apes, Franklin J Schaffner's 1968 adventure had spawned four sequels, an animated cartoon series, a live-action TV show, a deluge of marketing (bubblegum cards, plastic models, etc.) and Tim Burton's 2001 remake. And yet nobody wanted to touch Planet of the Apes when producer Arthur P Jacobs first touted it around Hollywood in the mid-'60s.
Adapted from Pierre Boulle's novel La Planète Des Singes, Jacobs saw it as the perfect follow-up to the animal magic movie he currently had in production, Doctor Dolittle. Approaching studios with a script by Rod Serling, the creator of The Twilight Zone, and concept images honed by no fewer than seven artists, Jacobs's passion project was nonetheless ridiculed: actors in monkey suits was the stuff of B-movies and cheap TV serials. »

The Planet of The Apes movies occupy a curious netherworld of critical opinion. With each film, the budget was sawn in half, leading to a successive pattern of diminishing returns that led to a cheapening of its esteem. The spin-off TV show was quickly cancelled, further dulling the lustre and few people even remember the animated series that finally put the Apes to bed until a rude awakening in 2001.
However, for all their child-pleasing capers (the family-friendly G rating was a mandatory stipulation from the studios), the Apes movies deftly juggled important themes and arguments about slavery, free-will, nuclear war, vivisection, racism and oppression, and man's innate capacity for cruelty. In pure storytelling terms, the circuitous plot links the first five movies (and the prequel Rise of The Planet of The Apes) into a pleasing, if relentlessly pessimistic, self-perpetuating full-circle.

One could argue the significance of the events that take place in The Empire Strikes Back. It's widely considered the finest Star Wars film made to date but an argument could be made as to whether anything actually happens in the film. Yes, there is one major revelation that goes without saying, but isn't the film merely just a stepping-stone to the next chapter? The film essentially is one long Saturday morning serial entry that practically ends with a voice-over announcing, "stay tuned next week Jedi; same Star time… same Star channel." That feeling of seeing only the first part in a larger story can be said for the recent entry in the Apes reboot series. Dawn Of The Planet Of The Apes leaves a lasting impression based on the impressive special effects, rich visual landscapes, and moving character interactions (kind of like the other entry in the »

The Empire Strikes Back, The Godfather 2, Aliens, The Dark Knight. Filmgoers can add a new title to the list of great sequels with director Matt Reeves' Dawn Of The Planet Of The Apes.
Starring Andy Serkis as "Caesar," the movie opens later tonight at theaters nationwide and the highly-anticipated sequel already represents more than 70% of Fandango's weekend ticket sales.
According to a Fandango survey of more than 1,000 "Apes" ticket-buyers, 81% of them are Serkis fans and 74% contend that the Apes and Hobbit star should be considered for an Oscar for his motion capture performances.
Here's a look at the latest featurettes with Reeves and stars Andy Serkis, Jason Clarke and Keri Russell on the escalating showdown between genetically evolved apes and humans.
Rise Of The Planet Of The Apes concluded with the apes breaking free from their human captors – just as a deadly human-created virus spread globally. Caesar, the benevolent ape leader, »

In 2011, Fox unleashed "Rise of the Planet of the Apes," a big screen reboot of their beloved "Planet of the Apes" franchise that was notable in the fact that the apes, usually portrayed, up until this point, by actors in sophisticated rubber suits, would be replaced by completely computer generated creatures. (They used a process called performance capture, which helped animators get a better sense of the characters by transforming actors' movements into track-able data.)
That film turned out to be a surprise smash, both critically and commercially, although this could have been because the bar was set so astoundingly low by Tim Burton's clunky 2002 remake. And we all know that where there's a hit, there will certainly be a sequel, especially if it's one of Fox's crown jewel properties.

I didn't necessarily dislike Dawn of the Planet of the Apes, but I became increasingly aware and annoyed by just how predictable and redundant it was. It got to the point a member of my screening audience sitting behind me said, "I knew it was going to be him," and I wanted to turn around and say, "Yeah, we all knew it was going to be him... about an hour ago." Outside of a couple of instances, there isn't a moment in this film you won't see coming and what's most disappointing about that is how well made it is, how great the performances are and how utterly great some of the scenes are. Picking up ten years after the events that followed 2011's Rise of the Planet of the Apes, a disease ironically dubbed the "Simian Flu" has wiped out the majority of the human population save for a »

The Los Angeles Lakers were falling and falling after Wednesday night's loss to the Memphis Grizzlies.
Literally everybody was calling for Mike D'Antoni to be fired. Not Mitch Kupchak and Jim Buss, though.
According to the Los Angeles Times, the two Lakers decision makers met with their coach and showed him their support:
Thursday was a day off for the Lakers, a time to recover from an 0-3 trip after returning to Los Angeles early in the morning from Memphis.
But it was a very busy day for Mike D'Antoni.
The Lakers' coach was given a vote of confidence during a face-to-face meeting with Lakers General Manager Mitch Kupchak and Executive Vice President Jim Buss, The Times has learned.
Despite a shaky start with the Lakers, D'Antoni was told to do whatever he wanted with the lineup. Buss and Kupchak support him.
He was told to do whatever was best for the offense. Buss and Kupchak support him.
D'Antoni followed up the meeting with a similar strategy in regards to his rotations, but the team responded differently tonight, beating the Utah Jazz 102-84. Kobe Bryant led the way with 14 assists and Dwight Howard looked dominant on defense.
So, Buss and Kupchak support him. And, if the team can keep winning like they did tonight, so will everybody else.

Das Rheingold Opens the Metropolitan Opera's 2010-11 Season
A groundbreaking new production of Wagner's Das Rheingold, the first installment in the composer's epic four-part cycle Der Ring des Nibelungen conducted by James Levine and directed by Robert Lepage, opens the Metropolitan Opera's 2010-11 season on Monday, September 27 at 6:45 p.m. The new production, which relies on a complex set that utilizes advanced technology, is the most challenging staging the Met has ever produced. Bryn Terfel brings his much-anticipated portrayal of Wotan, lord of the gods, to the U.S. for the first time, and Stephanie Blythe makes her Met role debut as his wife, Fricka. Eric Owens adds a new role to his Met repertory as the evil Alberich, and Gerhard Siegel is Mime. The cast also includes Wendy Bryn Harmer as Freia, Patricia Bardon as Erda, Adam Diegel in his Met debut as Froh, and brothers Richard Croft and DWayne Croft as Loge and Donner, respectively. It is the first time the brothers have sung together on the Met stage. The giants Fasolt and Fafner are portrayed by Franz-Josef Selig and Hans-Peter König, and Lisette Oropesa, Jennifer Johnson, and Tamara Mumford are the Rhinemaidens. Richard Paul Fink sings the role of Alberich on March 30.
Lepage's production team consists of set designer Carl Fillion, costume designer François St-Aubin, and lighting designer Étienne Boucher, the latter two in their Met debuts. The video images are by Boris Firquet, and the interactive projections are by the Quebec-based company Réalisations.inc.
Robert Lepage, one of the world's most creative directors of opera and theater, made his Met debut in 2008 with La Damnation de Faust. He and his production team bring cutting-edge technology and visionary imagination to Wagner's great music drama based on Norse mythology. "The Ring is about change," Lepage said. "I try to be extremely respectful of Wagner's storytelling, but in a very modern context. We're trying to see how in our day and age we can tell this classic story in the most complete way."
The unique set features 24 moving fiberglass-covered aluminum planks that rotate on a mobile steel axis suspended between two large elevator towers. Along with the set's extraordinary flexibility, projections are used to create the many different scenes and special effects of the four Ring operas. Interactive video projections are cued by live sound and movement. "It was important that we create a set machine that would have versatility, but at the same time feel very organic," commented Lepage.
The cycle's second installment, Die Walküre, opens later this season on April 22, and the Met will present the complete Der Ring des Nibelungen in the 2011-12 season. Das Rheingold is produced in collaboration with Ex Machina and is a generous gift of Ann Ziff and the Ziff family, in memory of William Ziff.
James Levine's 40th Anniversary at the Met
The 2010-11 season marks James Levine's 40th at the Met. The Met's music director has conducted nearly 2,500 performances with the company, more than anyone in the company's 127-year history. In addition to the opening night Das Rheingold, Levine conducts the Ring's second installment, Die Walküre, in a new production opening April 22. He also leads performances of Don Pasquale, Il Trovatore, Simon Boccanegra, and Wozzeck this season. The Met is honoring Levine's milestone anniversary with the release of two commemorative CD and DVD boxed sets of the music director's performances, nearly all of which have not been previously available. The collections, which will be available through the Met's website and in the Met Opera Shop beginning September 21, span Levine's unparalleled career at the Met, and include 11 complete operas in DVD, 11 complete operas on CD, as well as highlights from historic concerts.

I had such a fuckin awesome vacation. Four shows, two being trio, finally seeing finch after all these years and them being broken up and tower of power with my God father.
I got to take a train I never took before to the suburbs to my God parents, and I went home Saturday night instead of spending two hours in the city alone Sunday morning thanks for izzy coming out and having dinner. Spontaneously and last minute went to a Halloween party. It was real fun.
Ending my vacation with night 4, my night 2, of trio. It was amazing. I've got to hear My shame is true, Goddammit, Crimson and Good mourning all in full. Goddammit is my favorite trio album and hearing it in full AGAIN was gnarly as fuck. Nose over tail is my favorite trio song, my body just let loose all in my pit area.
I had such an awesome vacation. I can't remember when I felt this happy about a vacation. Yah my birthday vacation is always wonderful but ohhh man, this one made me stoked. Imagine if I had went to trio four nights instead of two?
Oh, I met Nate from finch on Tuesday at their show and when I got home I compared it to our photo from 03-05 whenever it was taken and its funny to see how we've grown. I love him, he's one attractive dude.
I also got to meet Mike Park on Thursday. He sold me my trio hoodie. He was so nice, I loved it.
I met a dude at the finch show who I thought was a real cool dude. He asked for my number and being me, I don't act well to being hit on or flirted with because that doesn't happen to me, but I told him we could be texting buddies.
I gave it to him but he didn't give me his. I wrote it ona piece of paper, because I'm old school. I think he lost it and I sort of feel stood up and I kind of hate that I feel like this because it's ridiculous. I'm an idiot.

Himachal Pradesh withdraws Lokayukta bill
The Himachal Pradesh assembly Monday adopted a resolution to withdraw the Himachal Pradesh Lokayukta Bill of 2012, passed by the previous BJP government.
The house passed the resolution, moved by Chief Minister Virbhadra Singh, by majority in the absence of the opposition Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP).
The bill, passed April 6, 2012 by then BJP government headed by Prem Kumar Dhumal, was sent to the president but did not receive assent.
At that time, the chief minister said the bill was "more strong and constitutional".
Dhumal had said the bill gives the Lokayukta powers of contempt of court at par with the high court by incorporating a new clause.
The bill covered all officials -- right from the chief minister to a ward panch (ward member in panchayat). Even complaints could be filed against the elected members of Panchayati Raj institutions and urban local bodies.
Interestingly, the assembly Feb 21 this year referred to a house select committee the Himachal Pradesh Lokayukta Act of 2014, which will give the ombudsman special powers to conduct independent inquiry and prosecution wings.
Chief Minister Virbhadra Singh had said the bill, which will repeal the existing Himachal Pradesh Lokayukta Act of 1983, should be referred to a select committee for consideration.
"As expressed by some members, we feel the bill should be referred to the select committee of Vidhan Sabha with some more amendments to make its provisions stronger and more effective," the chief minister had said in the assembly.
He said the government wanted that there should be serious discussions on the important bill.
"The opposition BJP has boycotted the proceedings in the entire session. We do not want to give them an opportunity to say that such an important bill was passed in the assembly in their absence," he had said.
Later, talking to reporters, Leader of Opposition Prem Kumar Dhumal said the Lokayukta bill was legally flawed.
He said the bill contradicts section 197 (1) of the Criminal Procedure Code and section 19 of the Prevention of Corruption Act, and violates section 311 of the constitution.
"The provisions in the bill could be challenged in the court of law," the former chief minister added.
